Circulin A and B are members of a family of macrocyclic peptides, originally isolated from the tropical tree Chassalia parvifolia, that have been shown to display anti-HIV activity. Complete structural elucidation of these highly constrained peptides was difficult due to their cyclic amide backbone
Four new macrocyclic polypeptides were isolated and identified from an extract of the tropical tree Chassalia parvifolia. Circulins C-F are 29-30 amino acid cyclic peptides in which the entire primary amino acid chain is covalently cyclized via peptide bonds. Their structures were deduced from a
The three-dimensional solution structure of circulin A, a 30 residue polypeptide from the African plant Chassalia parvifolia, has been determined using two-dimensional 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Circulin A was originally identified based upon its inhibition of the cytopathic effects and replication of the
